Yeah, I've caught kokanee on Needlefish and Triple Teasers. There are the Ospreys and Serpent Spoons and etc. which are intended for kokanee. But the 3 I'm talking about hit a 4 inch long silver hammered Krocodile or that Lucky Crafter Pointer 65. They are usually deep like Bob said and usually pretty good sized.
We had a quadruple on Friday. That made number 13 for the boat all time. Still only 1 quintuple though. Too many doubles and triples to count.
It was around noon and I had just finished a turn and turned my head to look back at the fish finder when I saw it change from 49.9 to 50 degrees. I turned around and looked at the gear, right as it was going to finish the turn and "flip" to start a different direction. As soon as I located the gear, I saw two salmon skyrocket out of the water, 6 feet or so. One with the Lucky craft in his mouth on the planer board and the other 10' down on the downrigger with a pink hoochie trailing a pink dodger behind it.
I love how they go berserk in the early season and jump like the devil just forked them in the tail. Never gets old.
